About / Biography

We are the Zukira Duo - a unique cello and guitar duo able to perform music from a range of genres including Classical, Pop, Rock, R&B, Soul , Afrobeats and Jazz.
We are flexible & versatile and regularly perform at a wide range of occasions and events.

Our Ugandan heritage is a big part of our story. We are both half-Ugandan, met in Uganda in the music scene there and have played together ever since.

Abbie is half English, was raised in the UK and is classically trained. Gavie is half-Ukrainian, was raised in Uganda and his playing is strongly influenced by African contemporary/jazz music.

With Zukira, our vision has been to combine the classical sonorous sound of the cello with African contemporary guitar to create an incredible musical fusion!
